GV ejectors

Why give you the pleasure of bomb tarding when the tank driver can just tower out? If I can tower out when on concrete and deny the pilot the kill, I will do it every time... I do not think it is a matter of being afraid of getting a bomb dropped on them like you wrote. It is a matter of why give the bomber a free kill?

I don't see how it's a free kill. He took a heavy aircraft in to hostile territory (almost sure death, if not accompanied by an entourage of clean fighters), dropped the bomb in some sort of precise fashion, and didn't auger on climb out. If you don't want bombs falling on your head, have a sqaudy roll a wirble, or fly air cover. Geez, what am I saying? Asking a vDevils Brigade member to use common sense!? I've been working too hard.

Might be a nice addition to make it so tankers sitting on pavement must wait 10 seconds from when they .ef and to when they exit.  It would really make it difficult to end the flight based on the noise of dropping bombs and really isn't that long to wait.

I disagree on a time to land requirement.  If they want to bail before bombs hit, then so be it.  It's their 15 bucks, and it's what makes them happy.  By the way, I never bomb GV's that are on friendly pavement unless the VH is down.  Why give up my egg for a less than a 100% chance of a kill?

Think about trying to survive by staying in the game, rather than giving a guy a target to hit and then exiting out as soon as he commits to his attack.  Very poor game play on your part.

Not surprised at the comments coming from the vDevils, what one squadron must do to make up for their collective lack of skill.

ack-ack

LOL.  That is so trul.

because he's sitting sitting still.


how about this "solution"? if a vehicle gets killed by a bomb and is not in motion, have it count simply as an object destroyed instead of a kill!  

i dont see a problem either way.. if you are bombing gv's at an enemy base, you're probably trying to capture it.. put your bombs on the vh(s), then on the gv's.. if they tower out then, who cares, they're out of the fight either way, you just don't get an easy kill to go along with it.  

also, i believe hitech has addressed the issue, and said it is like a defender's homefield advantage.

gotta love the mentality! i bet some of those real tank drivers wished they could've .ef'ed out of their tanks before they were blown to smithereens! oh well, there are little boys, then there's men!

A la Moil.Speak of Moil, is he still around?

Anyone in the game can alt out any time they get into a position of being killed.
Exiting a GV once a bomb is headed your way is the same thing.   It is poor gameplay, cheap gameplay.... but thats just how some people are.  Others stay in the game and with the fight until the end.  Those are the ones that make the game a better experience.

Homefield advantage?  no.  thats just HTCs code speak way of saying not important enough to address.  And I agree.  Some of us are going to stick with it, others will bail at the first sign of being beaten.  Nothing can be done to make those people want to fight it out. 

[Dr_Death8]

I rarely do this.  I just suck it up and either try to move fast or hope the attacker drops too wide or too low.

Bailing from a tank is the same to me as someone who bails from their LANCs the moment they are done dropping bombs.  It cheapens the entire experience.

  Same here. Besides, if I am paying attention, a last minute manuever makes the bomber miss every time. 

[B4Buster]

DERK, if you are so upset about GVs hitting .ef and just driving another 300 yards to the same position, then my guess is the VH is still up. In that case, why not drop on the VH? It can't tower out once you release your bombs, and you still get your name in lights for doing damage. Why drop on a vehicle when the VH is up unless you're just looking for easy kills? In that case, I'd tower out too.

[The Fugitive]

B4Busty, I think you may have hit the crux of the problem. This may be one of the very few ways this guy can rack up any kills either for his name in lights, or for score. Another instance of people not wanting to bother learning how to fight, just looking for another way to cut corners.

That's why I don't JABO GV's that are on concrete.

Simple fix, really.

I wouldn't expect less from the #1 Bulletin Board Tool in Aces High! Thanks again for another waste of hard drive space Ack-Ack...
